Maurice Hooker Scores Split-Decision Upset Victory Over Terry Flanagan For WBO 140-Pound World Championship Belt

Лос-Анджэлес (Чэрвеня 9, 2018) – Former Unified Heavyweight World Champion Tyson Fury scored a fourth-round TKO over Sefer Seferi at Manchester Arena in Manchester, Англія, on Saturday in a bout that was streamed live to U.S. audiences via SHOWTIME Sports social media platforms.

 

 

 

The 6-foot-9, 275-plus pound Fury, who outweighed Seferi by more than 65 pounds following Friday’s weigh-in, looked rusty in the scheduled 10-rounder, his first bout in more than 31 месяцы. Seferi sat on his stool after four completed rounds and did not answer the bell for round five.

 

 

 

апантанасць (26-0, 19 КО) playfully bounced around for the first few rounds, and was even warned for a lack of activity in the second round against a severely undermanned Seferi (23-2, 21 КО). Fury is likely to face a tougher opponent in his next fight set for September in a division currently ruled by world title holders Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder.

 

 

 

Fury’s return to the ring came after 924 days of inactivity due to bouts of depression and admitted drug use following an upset victory over Wladimir Klitschko to take Klitschko’s WBA, IBF and WBO world titles.

 

 

 

In a fight that preceded Fury-Seferi, undefeated American Maurice Hooker won a split-decision upset victory over hometown favorite Terry Flanagan to capture the vacant WBO Junior Welterweight World Championship belt. Ацэнкі былі 117-111, 115-113 for Hooker, і 117-111 for Flanagan.

 

 

 

With blood streaming down his face, the former lightweight title holder Flanagan (33-1, 13 КО), who suffered a deep cut on the forehead after an accidental head butt in the seventh round, couldn’t overcome the aggressive Hooker (24-0-3, 16 КО), who just like training partner Errol Spence Jr., had to travel overseas to win his first world title.

 

 

 

Hooker, a 28-years-old Dallas native, was fighting for the first time outside of the United States against Flanagan, who was a 135-pound champion for three years with five defenses before moving up to the 140-pound class.

 

 

 

З перамогай, Hooker became the 76й ShoBox: Новае пакаленне alum to win a world title, joining the likes of Spence and Wilder.

 

 

 

Boxing broadcaster Ray Flores and analyst Chris Mannix delivered pre and post-fight analysis from STAPLES Center in Los Angeles for the SHOWTIME Sports audience.

 

 

 

Later on Saturday night, WBA Super Featherweight World Champion Леў Санта-Крус will rematch former three-division world champion Авэнір Mares на SHOWTIME ЧЭМПІЯНАТ БОКС® (10 p.m. ET/PT delayed on the West Coast) from Staples Center in Los Angeles. У тэлеперадачы нож, Houston’s Jermell Charlo will defend his WBC Super Welterweight World Title against former world champion Осцін Траут.

“I’m confident. I’m stronger and I’m bigger, fitter.”

 

 

 

“I’m more than ready. I know what he’s going to bring, and I’m prepared for the best Maurice Hooker. … I think I need to step up now and show people what I’m about.”

 

(On moving up a weight class) “It’s five pounds, it’s nothing. I’m plenty big enough to move up again. I’m 5-foot-10. I’m big, Я моцны, I’m ready for this weight. This is my natural weight. … I’ll get a title at this weight and then see what happens from there.”

 

 

 

“There’s nothing he can do now or that I can do now to change how the fight is going to go. It’s all about getting in there and being 100 percent switched on ready, and we’re going to have a fight Saturday night.”

 

Maurice Hooker

“I love being the underdog – I’ve been the underdog my whole life, and look where I’m at now. I’m ready to fight Saturday, and Terry’s ready to fight. I’m going to punch him in the mouth, and I hope he punches me back – if not, he’s in trouble.”

 

 

 

“We’re going to put on a good show come Saturday night. He’s in good shape, and I’m in good shape. Мы можам пайсці 12 rounds real hard, or it might be an early night for Terry.”

 

 

 

“I’m back now and better than ever. I’m ready to show the whole world who I am. Before that fight with Darleys Perez, everybody was scared to fight me. I’m still that monster, I’m still that dog. Come Saturday night, I’m going to punch him in the mouth and I might knock him out in the first round.”

 

 

 

“Come Saturday night, I pray for him, because I mean business when I get in that ring.”

 

 

 

“It’s my best against his best. We’ve got a fight Saturday night, so don’t blink.”

EDMONTON, Канада (Чэрвеня 5, 2018) – Canadian boxing fans will have the opportunity to watch the long-awaited return of the“Gypsy King,” undefeated former unified heavyweight world champion Тайсан Фьюри у гэтую суботу супраць Sefer “The Real Deal” Seferi у галоўнай падзеі 10-раўндавым, airing in Canada exclusively on Super Channel, live from Manchester Arena in Manchester, Вялікабрытанія.
Ён Назад: Fury vs. Seferi, presented by Frank Warren’s Queensbury Promotions, will air exclusively on Super Channel across Canada, пачынаючы з 2:00 p.m. І / 11:00 a.m. PT.
“We couldn’t be more excited to be bringing this highly anticipated bout marking the return of Tyson Fury to the boxing world, to our viewers,” said Don McDonald, Прэзідэнт і галоўны выканаўчы дырэктар, супер канал. “This is exactly the type of exclusive content that Canadian boxing fans have come to expect from Super Channel Sports and is a welcome addition to our growing catalogue of marquee boxing events.”
Perhaps boxing’s most polarizing figure, апантанасць (25-0, 15 КО) has been sidelined with mental health issues for the past 2 ½ гадоў, after shocking the boxing world November 28, 2015, when he defeated future Hall of Famer Уладзімір Клічко (64-3, 53 КО) шляхам 10-раўндавым аднагалосным рашэннем суддзяў (116-111, 115-112, 115-112).
6′ 9″ Fury became the undisputed world heavyweight champion, securing the IBF, WBA, WBO, IBO and Кальцо чэмпіянаты, only to be stripped and/or relinquish his title belts without a single defense.
(L-Р) – У сваім апошнім баі, Tyson Fury upset Wladimir Klitschko
Canadian boxing fans are more than familiar with Fury, who held his extended training camp in Canada, at Hotel Lac Leamy in Gatineau, prior to his April 20, 2013 fight at famed Madison Square Garden in New York City, in which he stopped multiple world champion Стыў Канінгам in the seventh round.
“I can’t wait to get in there and prove that I’m a better fighter than I’ve ever been,” the charismatic Fury said. “I’m coming into the prime of my career now and I’ve never felt better. I’m fitter, stronger and faster than the Fury of 2015.
“It’s going to be a huge night for the City of Manchester (where Fury was born). I’m delighted to be fighting at the iconic Manchester Arena for the first time in my career. I’m promising the fans a special performance to thank them for their loyal support.”
Seferi, fighting out of Albania, has suffered only one loss during his otherwise perfect 11-year pro boxing career, losing a 10-round decision in 2016 to future WBA heavyweight world champion Мануэль Чарр (29-4) for the vacant WBA International crown.
“This is going to be a hard fight for Fury,” Seferi predicted. “I’m very disciplined and always ready to take on everyone and anyone. This will not be an easy night for him. I’m coming to Manchester to beat one of the boxing legends of the 21вуліца century.
“He is tall and strong, but he won’t be ready for the pressure that I will bring. Two-and-one-half years out of the ring is a long time and nobody knows if he is still the same fighter that dethroned Wladimir Klitschko. I am going to seize the opportunity with both hands.”
The 12-round co-feature features local hero, undefeated Brit Тэры “Turbo” Flanagan (33-0, 13 КО), in his bid to become a two-division world champion, versus unbeaten American Морыс “Майці Мо” Hooker (23-0-3, 16 КО) for the vacant WBO super-lightweight world title.

Hooker, a southpaw from Dallas, Texas and ShoBox alum, has been training with Тэрэнс Кроўфард. Hooker will look to follow in the footsteps of fellow Dallas resident Эррол Спенс малодшы., who went to Kell Brook’s hometown of Sheffield, England to capture his first world championship.

Чэрвеня 10 live from Iowa on CBS Sports Network
SLOAN, IA (Мая 31, 2017) – An injury has forced NABO Junior Welterweight Champion Maurice “Майці Мо” Hooker (22-0-3, 16 КО) to withdraw from his scheduled “KO Night бокса: WAR In WinnaVegas” headline event against Abdiel “Mortero” Рамірэс, на Субота, Чэрвеня 10, вентыляцыя (10 p.m. І / 7 p.m. PT) on CBS Sports Network live from WinnaVegas Casino Resort in Sloan, Аёва.
“KO Night бокса: WAR In WinnaVegas” is presented by KO Night Boxing LLC, in association with Roc Nation Sports, Ringside Ticket Inc. and WinnaVegas Resort Casino. TITLE Boxing is the official gloves provider for KO Night Boxing.

WBC Oriental Super Lightweight Champion Zhimin Wang (8-1, 3 КО), Кітай, will face Dallas lightweight Manuel Rey Rojas (14-3, 4 КО) as an addition to the card. Elevated to main event status is the original 10-round co-feature being contested for the vacant United States Boxing Association (USBA) featherweight title, matching former USBA champion Daniel “Twitch” Франка (15-1-3, 10 КО), who fights out of Rancho Cucamonga, Каліфорнія, and Utah favorite Jose Haro (13-1-1, 7 КО).

The 25-year-old Franco (15-1-3, 10 КО), who fights under the Roc Nation Sports banner, was a standout amateur boxer captured the vacant USBA featherweight title last November, knocking out previously unbeaten Derrick Murray (13-0-1) in four rounds. He lost the belt in his following fight, stopped by veteran Christopher Martin (29-8-3) in the third round of their non-title fight in Los Angeles on Сакавіка 23. Franco is currently rated No. 5 by the USBA and No. 11 by the NABO.

Haro (13-1-1, 7 КО), USBA No. 14-намінальны, is an all-action fighter with tremendous potential. The 29-year-old is presently riding a six-fight win streak with five victories and one draw. His lone loss as a professional was to highly-touted prospect Toka Kahn Clary (11-0) by way of a six-round decision in 2014.

The new 10-round co-feature will be an exciting match-up between Wang and Rojas (14-3, 4 КО). Last January in China, Zhimin defeated Aekkawee Kaewmanee (16-6), by way of a 10-round unanimous decision for the vacant WBO Oriental crown. The only blemish on Zhimin’s otherwise perfect pro record is a 10-round loss by decision last September, to then 12-0 Russian prospect Ivan Baranchyk in Oklahoma.

“I honestly felt that Haro vs. Franco was a legitimate main event fight as the co-feature,” promoter John Andersen. “Injuries are an unfortunate part of boxing and we’re disappointed to lose a world-class fighter like Hooker. Зараз, хоць, Haro-Franco gets top billing and we’re fortunate to have a solid co-feature added to a very competitive, entertaining card.”

The TV opener features Chicago super bantamweight prospect Giovanni Mioletti (7-0, 1 KO) taking on Las Vegas’ upset-minded Sal Lopez (4-1) на працягу шасці-раўндавым паядынку. In a pair of four-round undercard matches, Sioux City, Iowa cruiserweight Shalyn Joseph will make his pro debut against Chicago’s Darrius Flowers (0-1), while Sioux Falls, South Dakota super welterweightKeith Cournoyer (0-0-1), квадратаў з з Justin Likeness, of Minot, North Dakota.

Roc Nation Спорт’ Hooker (22-0-3, 16 КО) will defend his North American Boxing Organization (NABO) junior welterweight against title challenger Abdiel “Mortero” Рамірэс (23-1-1, 21 КО) у галоўнай падзеі 10-раўндавым.
Fighting out of Dallas, Hooker is world rated at No. 2 Сусветнай баксёрскай арганізацыі (WBO), і Няма. 4 by the International Boxing Federation (IBF). The 27-year-old Hooker was a decorated amateur boxer in Texas, finishing with a 97-7 (67 КО) запіс, who turned pro in 2011.
Hooker first captured the vacant NABO title in 2015, at home in Dallas, with a six-round technical knockout of previously unbeaten Eduardo Galindo (10-0-1). З, Hooker has made three successful title defenses against Ghislain Maduma (17-1) at the famed Madison Square Garden on Nov. 17, 2015, Ty Barnett (23-5-1) at Oracle Arena on August 6, 2016; and in a 10-round draw with former World Boxing Association (WBA) чэмпіён свету Darleys Перэс (33-2-1) on undercard of Sergey Kovalev vs. Андрэ Уорд “Pound-For-Pound” on Mov. 19 ў Лас-Вегасе.
In his most recent fight on Лютага. 25 ў Мексіцы, Hooker cruised to a dominant 10-round decision victory over former IBF World Champion Крыстабаля Крус (41-20-4).
Рамірэс, 25, is a former FECOMBOX Lightweight Champion, fighting out of Ciudad Juarez, Мексіка. Рамірэс, who is riding a nine-fight win streak, will be fighting outside of his native Mexico for the first time against Hooker.
The 10-round co-feature for the vacant United States Boxing Association (USBA) featherweight crown has been in the works for a while and it could very well steal the show as former USBA champion Данііл “Twitch” Франка бярэ на сябе Jose Haro.
The 25-year-old Franco (15-1-3, 10 КО), fighting out of Rancho Cucamonga, Каліфорнія, started boxing at the age of eight, назапашваючы аматарскай запісу 67-15, highlighted by gold-medal performances at the 2006 Oxnard PAL Championships and 2017 California State Silver Gloves Championships.
Fighting under the Roc Nation Sports banner, Franco captured the vacant USBA featherweight title last November, knocking out previously unbeaten Derrick Murray (13-0-1) in four rounds. Franco was stopped in his last fight by veteran Christopher Martin (29-8-3) in the third round of their non-title fight in Los Angeles on Сакавіка 23. Franco is currently rated No. 5 by the USBA and No. 11 by the NABO.
USBA No. 14-rated Haro (13-1-1, 7 КО), who is a well-kept secret outside of West Jordan, Utah, is an all-action fighter. The 29-year-old has won his last five fights, unbeaten in in his last six with a draw, since suffering his only loss to highly-touted prospect Toka Kahn Clary (11-0) by way of a six-round decision in 2014.
